SEA GULLS-- A GREGARIOUS, NOISY BIRD

GIVEN TO FOLLOWING SHIPS.

THERE ARE OTHER VARIETIES OF SEA GULLS.

SOME FLY, SOME COME BY TRAIN OR BUS.

HERE IN THE MEDITERRANEAN

THIS FLOCK OF SEA GULLS

IS FOLLOWING ONE PARTICULAR U.S. DESTROYER.

THERE ARE MANY OTHERS

FOR THESE ARE THE WIVES AND SWEETHEARTS

OF MEN SERVING ON THE AMERICAN SIXTH FLEET.

THIS IS YOUR MAN ON THE SPOT REPORTING TO YOU

FROM THE WATERFRONT AT CANNES, FRANCE

AND BRINGING INTO FOCUS FOR ALLIED TELEVISION

THE HEARTACHES, JOYS, AND TEARS

OF THIS GALLANT BAND OF WOMEN.

-PARDON ME. -WHOA!

NO SHIP'S TO ANCHOR HERE. DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S PULLING UP.

NOBODY'S TOLD ME YET. WHAT TIME WILL THE BOAT GET IN?

WHAT? WHAT TIME WILL THE BOAT GET IN?

WHAT? [SHOUTING] WHAT TIME WILL THE BOAT--

[TURNS MUSIC OFF]

THESHIP IS GOING OUT.

HOW DO YOU MEAN GOING OUT?

LOOK, THE SHIP CAME IN

AND THEN IT JUST SWUNG AROUND

AND IT WENT RIGHT OUT AGAIN.

WHY?

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO EXPLAIN.

I DON'T KNOW. I JUST DON'T KNOW.

THE ADMIRAL HASN'T LET ME IN ON IT.

READING FROM STERN TO BOW, I QUOTE

"MARILYN, I'LL BE TRUE. HOW ABOUT YOU?

"JOSEPHINE...

NOT TONIGHT, JOSEPHINE."

OH, PARDON. THIS ONE'S FOR ME.

"DIVERTED FOR EXERCISE ALERT.

"ON COMPLETION, SHIP WILL PUT IN

AT SANTA MARGHERITA."

WELL, THAT'S IT.

NEXT STOP-- SANTA MARGHERITA.

WELL, THAT'S ALL, LADIES.

BUT I'VE COME ALL THE WAY FROM PIERRE, SOUTH DAKOTA.

WELL, WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT.

I MEAN SHIP.

BUT HE'S SO NEAR...

AND I'VE COME SO FAR.

YOUR HUSBAND?

MM-HMM. SORT OF.

WELL, THAT'S NEW. HOW SORT OF?

WE GOT MARRIED AT 9:00 AND HE GOT HIS ORDERS AT 10:00--

RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEDDING BREAKFAST.

AND ALL WAS LOST, SAVE HONOR.

WELL, BETTER LUCK IN SANTA MARGHERITA.

HEY!

WHERE IS THIS PLACE?

THE ITALIAN RIVIERA.

ITALY! I JUST GOT TO FRANCE.

YOU JOIN THE NAVY, YOU SEE THE WORLD WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.

HOW DO YOU GET THERE? IN THIS CASE, WE TAKE A TRAIN-- 647.

SURE. THE TRAIN.

THAT COSTS MONEY.

AND YOU...

DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY?

SURE, I DO. I HAVE 54 FRANCS.

OH. 54 FRANCS.

YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THAT IS?

THAT'S ABOUT $10.

OH, IS IT?

WELL, LOOK...

I CAN'T STAKE YOU TO THE FARE HOME

BUT I'LL STAKE YOU TO THE FARE TO SANTA MARGHERITA.

IN PIERRE, SOUTH DAKOTA, WE NEVER BORROW.

LOOK...

I HAVE TO MAKE A SUGGESTION, THEN.

GO TO THE U.S. CONSULATE IN NICE.

TELL THEM AND LET THEM HELP YOU, HUH?

YOU MEAN CON THE STATE DEPARTMENT?

I DON'T MEAN CON ANYBODY.

I MEAN, JUST GO TO THE U.S. CONSULATE AND TELL THEM.

WILL YOU DO THAT? YEAH.

O.K.?

OH! BUT THE SHIP DID NOT COME IN.

IT HAS GONE TO SANTA MARGHERITA.

OH, NO, NO, NO! I'M DETERMINED.

THE UNITED STATES NAVY CANNOT PROTECT HIM FROM EVERYTHING.

I WILL MANAGE IT... SOMEHOW.

AU REVOIR.

[MAN] GOOD-BYE.

OH! MADEMOISELLE!

ARE YOU GOING TO SANTA MARGHERITA?

YES.

I WONDER IF YOU CARE TO GO BY CAR? YOU HAVE A CAR?

WELL...ALMOST.

WAIT A MINUTE. THAT?

OH, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT APPEARANCES ARE OFTEN DECEPTIVE.

OH, SURE.

BENEATH THAT ROUGH EXTERIOR

BEATS A HEART OF PURE RUST.

THAT IS THE CRAZIEST- LOOKING HOT ROD I EVER SAW.

AS A MATTER OF ACADEMIC INTEREST ONLY

ARE YOU BUYING, OR ARE YOU SELLING?

OH, BUYING. AT LEAST A SHARE.

YOU SEE, I CAN ONLY AFFORD 50 FRANCS

AND IT IS FOR 200.

IF THERE CAN BE FOUR OF US, IT'S A CHEAP WAY TO TRAVEL.

THAT'S FOR ME.

AND YOU, MADAME?

OH, NO, THANKS.

THAT THING'S AS OLD AS I AM.

AND PROBABLY IN JUST AS GOOD CONDITION, TOO.

THANKS.

HEY, LOOK!

LET'S TRY HER.

I DON'T THINK SO.

STRICTLY THOROUGHBRED.

OUT OF BLUE BLOOD BY SOCIAL REGISTER.

I'LL ASK HER.

GOOD LUCK.

FOR THE PRICE OF THE DRESS ALONE

THAT ONE COULD HIRE A PRIVATE PLANE.

SHE'S INTERESTED.

GO ON. GET WITH IT.

PARDON?

THE SALES TALK.

[MOANS]

LISTEN TO THOSE SPRINGS.

YOU SEE? THE CAR HAS RHYTHM.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS POWERFUL MOTOR.

THEY SURE DON'T MAKE MOTORS LIKE THAT ANYMORE.

IT'S A LOVELY CONTRAST, TOO.

WHY DON'T YOU SHOP AROUND FOR A CHEAP ROLLS ROYCE?

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ACHEAPROLLS ROYCE.

HOWEVER, I'M ALWAYS INTERESTED

IN A SOUND INVESTMENT.

WELL, IN THAT CASE, YOU CAN PICK UP MY SHARE.

SOLD.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE O.K.

THANKYOU.

AFTER ALL, IT'S MORE EXPENSIVE ON THE TRAIN.

100 FRANCS.

I'LL GO GET MY 50 FRANCS.

A LITTLE ONE FOR YOU.

RIGHT.

SHALL WE GO? MM-HMM.

WHO'S DRIVING?

OH, I'M GETTING MY MONEY BACK.

I'M SORRY, HONEY.

WELL, THAT'S THAT, HUH?

THAT CONSULATE IN NICE...

COULD--COULD I GET THERE ON FOUR FRANCS?

WELL, THAT DOES IT.

SANTA MARGHERITA, HERE WE COME.

ATTA GIRL!■ MERVEILLEUX!

WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME WHY I'M EVERYBODY'S BIG SISTER?

I'M MY MOTHER'S BIG SISTER. I'M MY BIG SISTER'S BIG SISTER.

AND YOU OWE ME 50 FRANCS. OH, SURE.

HERE WE GO.

♪ CLANG, CLANG, CLANG ♪

♪ WENT THE TROLLEY, CLANG-- ♪♪

GOOD MORNING, SIR.

AH, IT'S GREAT TO BE ALIVE, ISN'T IT?

YES, IT IS.

WHAT'S YOUR REASON?

WELL, I...

I, UH, JUST LIKE BEING AT SEA.

DON'T TELL ME YOU BELIEVE IN THE RECRUITING POSTERS.

OH, ABSOLUTELY.

THAT'S FUNNY.

I MUST HAVE MISSED THE ONE THAT GUARANTEED A GIRL IN EVERY PORT.

SURELY YOU DON'T THINK THAT'S THE REASON I JOINED THE NAVY.

ISN'T IT? I HEARD THAT THE MINUTE YOU HIT THE SHORE

YOU BECAME A ONE-MAN MARSHALL PLAN.

WELL, NOT BY CHOICE.

I'VE TO KEEP RUNNING UP BILLS BECAUSE THE MORE BILLS I RUN UP

THE MORE MY FATHER THREATENS TO CUT OFF MY ALLOWANCE.

HOW'S THAT AGAIN, LIEUTENANT?

IF I STOP RUNNING UP BILLS, MY PARENTS MIGHT GET THE IDEA THAT

I'M READY TO SETTLE DOWN AND, UH, GET MARRIED.

EITHER WAY, YOU'RE A DEAD DUCK. IS THAT IT?

SAD BUT TRUE.

THE SPOT I'M IN, I ALMOSTHADTO JOIN THE NAVY.

WELL, THAT'S ONE EVEN THE RECRUITING OFFICE HASN'T THOUGHT OF.

BUT I HOPE YOU REALIZE, SIR

THAT ALL THOSE RUMORS ABOUT MY ACTUAL ACTIVITIES ASHORE

ARE THE MERE FABRICATIONS OF CERTAIN JEALOUS MINDS.

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]

WELL, WHAT IS IT, SMITH? A MESSAGE TO GARCIA?

OH, NO, SIR. LIEUTENANT LANGLEY.

I, UH, I JUST WANTED A FEW WORDS WITH HIM.

ALRIGHT. HAVE A FEW.

YOU...

YOU'RE A LOW, MISERABLE,

DOUBLE-CROSSING, SHIFTY-EYED CRUMB.

THANK YOU, SIR.

SIR, DID THE MAIL COME ABOARD

WHEN WE MADE THE TURN?

YES.

AH. I'M AFRAID LIEUTENANT SMITH

HAS JUST FOUND OUT THAT A CERTAIN BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP

HAS BECOME MUTUAL.

CARRY ON, LIEUTENANT. YES, SIR.

AS I RECALL, YOU WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TROLLEY SONG.

♪ CLANG, CLANG, CLANG ♪

♪ WENT THE TROLLEY... ♪♪

JUST IN CASE ONE OF US SURVIVES THIS TRIP

I THINK THE NEXT OF KIN SHOULD BE NOTIFIED.

I'M LIZ BRADVILLE. MICHELE PERRIER.

TONI DENHAM. I'M BONNIE PULASKI.

HEY, THERE'S A FELLOW CALLED BRADVILLE

ON MY BILLY'S BOAT

THEUSS MAITLAND--

A LIEUTENANT COMMANDER.

I KNOW THE GUY. HE'S MY HUSBAND.

BILLY'S RADARMAN...

THIRD CLASS. OH.

I DOUBT IF YOUR MEN ARE GOING TO MAKE IT INTO SANTA MARGHERITA.

HOW'S THAT?

I KNOW THE ASSISTANT NAVIGATION OFFICER ON THEMAITLAND.

HE COULD LOSE A BATTLESHIP IN A BATHTUB.

PETE LANGLEY?

MY FIANCE.

WELL, CONGRATULATIONS.

WHEN'S IT GOING TO BE?

I HAVE TO AGREE WITH BOTH OUR FAMILIES

THAT THE SOONER WE MERGE, THE BETTER--

FROM A BUSINESS VIEWPOINT, OF COURSE.

SOUNDS ROMANTIC.

THE RESULT OF OUR UNION WILL BE DENHAM/LANGLEY CONSOLIDATED--

ONE OF THE BIGGEST MEAT CANNING COMBINES

IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS.

HALLELUJAH.

WHO ARE YOU FOLLOWING?

OH, LIEU--

LIEUTENANT, UH, LIEUTENANT SMITH.

-WHAT BOAT'S HE ON? -SHIP.

HE'S ON, UM...

YOU...YOU WOULDN'T HAPPEN TO MEAN

LIEUTENANT WADSWORTH SMITH, J.G.?

WELL, YES.

DON'T SAY HE'S ON THEMAITLAND,TOO.

HONEY, THERE'S ONLY ONE WADSWORTH SMITH

IN THE WHOLE UNITED STATES NAVY.

HEY, YOU ENGAGED?

WELL...

I KNOW. SORT OF.

THIS IS THE EXEC. WHO'S DOWN THERE?

RADARMAN THIRD CLASS BILLY PULASKI, SIR.

JUST THE LAST NAME WILL DO FINE, PULASKI.

WE ONLY HAVE ONE OF YOU ABOARD...

I'M HAPPY TO SAY.

YES, SIR. WE'RE DUE TO RENDEZVOUS WITH A CARRIER AT 1500.

LET ME KNOW WHEN WE MAKE CONTACT. AYE, AYE, SIR.

HEY, HOW COME HE'S SO HAPPY

I'M THE ONLY ONE ABOARD?

DON'T FIGHT IT, BOY.

YOU'RE ONE OF TROUBLE'S CHOSEN HANDMAIDENS.

YEAH?

FOR INSTANCE, YOU GOT THE RADAR SWITCHED OFF

AND YOU'RE STILL STANDING THERE STARING AT IT.

SHUT UP. ME AND BONNIE ARE WATCHING TELEVISION.

YOU AND WHO ARE WHAT?

WATCHING TELEVISION.

SO WHAT'S WRONG WITH PRACTICING?

-PRACTICING? -YEAH, TO BE A HUSBAND.

THAT'S WHAT YOUNG MARRIED PEOPLE DO THESE DAYS. THEY WATCH TV.

I WANT TO BE READY, THAT'S ALL.

PULASKI, MAYBE YOU'D BETTER SEND FOR YOUR WIFE.

WHAT, MY BONNIE A SEA GULL?

OH, NO.

MY NORA'S A SEA GULL.

EVERY PORT WE PUT INTO

THERE SHE IS STANDING ON THE DOCK WAITING FOR ME

HER ARMS OUTSTRETCHED, CALLING MY NAME.

O.K. YOU WANT ME TO TAKE YOUR DUTY AT SANTA MARGHERITA?

YEAH, THANKS.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS?

YOU DIDN'T LAY THE LAW DOWN LIKE I DID WITH BONNIE.

RIGHT NOW I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE SHE IS--

PIERRE, SOUTH DAKOTA

WITH MY MOTHER AND MY MOTHER'S MOTHER.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT SHE'S DOING?

SHE IS PLANNING A HOME FOR ME TO COME HOME TO.

YOU IDIOT.

100 KILOMETERS. JUST FREEWHEELING.

THINK OF THE GAS WE DON'T HAVE TO BUY.

SAY, A DOLLAR A GALLON-- ABOUT $3.60.

YOU SAVING UP FOR YOUR OLD AGE OR SOMETHING?

MERCI! MERCI!

BYE!

HEY, NOT SO FAST.

PUT YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE.

I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, CLEAR DOWN TO THE FLOOR.

-PUT IT IN GEAR. -IT IS.

[SHOUTING IN FRENCH]

OH, DOESN'T ANYTHING WORK?

WILL YOU TURN THAT RADIO UP LOUD?

[MUSIC GETTING LOUDER]

[MEN SHOUTING IN ITALIAN]

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[TURNS OFF MUSIC]

BUON GIORNO.

OH!

ARGH!

[SPEAKING FRENCH]

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

MAYBE HE'S GOT A FEW ODD JOBS HE WANTS US TO DO. COME ON.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

OH! OH!

GRAZIE.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

OH!SI! SI!

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

I HOPE HE DOESN'T SNEEZE.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

[BANGING]

NOW, THAT'S WHAT I CALL A PAIR OF LUNGS.

WHAT IF HE CANNOT FIX IT?

WELL, WE MISS THE PROVERBIAL BOAT.

NO, NO, NO. WE MUST NOT.

WHY NOT?

I HAVE SO LITTLE MONEY.

I TELEPHONED A FRIEND TO BORROW JUST 500 FRANCS.

ALAS!

MICHELE...

YOU NEVER EVEN HEARD OF A LIEUTENANT WADSWORTH SMITH

UNTIL I COVERED FOR YOU.

BUT WHEN TONI MENTIONED PETER LANGLEY...

IT WAS A SHOCK.

I'M VERY-- A LONG FRIEND OF HIS.

PETER LANGLEY DOESN'T HAVE ANY LONG GIRLFRIENDS

ONLY DOZENS OF SHORT ONES.

OH, YES, I KNOW THAT

BUT TO HEAR THAT HE'S ACTUALLY ENGAGED

AND TO TONI.

[LUIGI SNEEZES]

-GESUNDHEIT. -GRAZIE.

PREGO.

WELL, NOW THAT YOU KNOW

DO YOU THINK THERE'S ANY POINT IN GOING ON?

PLEASE.

I THINK YOU MUST UNDERSTAND.

I CANNOT JUST TURN AND WALK AWAY AND...

IF I COULD SEE PETE FOR EVEN A FEW MINUTES ALONE.

AND THIS LIEUTENANT SMITH

IF HE WOULD PRETEND TO KNOW ME...

PERHAPS BEFORE THE NIGHT WAS THROUGH...

OH, THERE'S NO PERHAPS ABOUT IT.

OH, I MEAN, AT LEAST I MIGHT HAVE A CHANCE TO SEE PETE.

YOU LEAVE IT TO ME.

HOW DO YOU ARRANGE THIS?

YOU FORGET. I'M THE LIEUTENANT COMMANDER'S WIFE.

HE'S DEAD.

IS IT FIXED? NO?

HOW DO YOU SAY, UM...

-SI. -OUI!

YES!

NO.

YOU THINK THEY'D HAVE A MACHINE FOR THIS SORT OF THING.

THEY HAVE--US.

[BABY CRYING]

OH, I'LL GET IT.

IT'S A BABY, NOT A TELEPHONE.

OH, YEAH.

WHAT'LL I DO NOW?

I UNDERSTAND SOME PEOPLE SING TO THEM.

MY MOTHER USED TO SING AN ITALIAN SONG.

I WONDER IF SHE'LL-- IT'LL UNDERSTAND IT.

TRY IT. IT'S AN ITALIAN BABY.

[SINGING IN ITALIAN]

[BABY STOPS CRYING]

[SINGING IN ITALIAN]

HEY, LANGLEY, YOU SPOTTED THE ENEMY YET?

NOT UNTIL NOW.

HO HO HO.

HAVE SOME COFFEE.

WHY, THANK YOU, SMITH.

HOW YOU FIXED FOR, AH, SANTA MARGHERITA?

AS A MATTER OF FACT, NOT TOO GOOD.

I GOT A LETTER FROM SOFIA. SHE GOT MARRIED. HMM.

I'LL ASK MARISSA IF SHE'S GOT A FRIEND.

SOFIA ALSO SAID THAT MARISSA MARRIED THE BROTHER.

YOU KNOW SOMETHING, I DON'T EVEN CARE.

I MUST BE GETTING OLD.

YEAH. WHO NEEDS THEM?

SMITTY, I'VE BEEN THINKING.

THERE'S NOTHING IN NAVAL REGULATIONS

THAT SAYS WE HAVE TO SPEND OUR LIBERTY CHASING GIRLS.

WHAT HAVE YOU GOT IN MIND?

WELL, WE COULD, UH, WE COULD GO SEE STATUES

VISIT MUSEUMS, SEE SOME CATHEDRALS

SOAK UP A LITTLE CULTURE FOR A CHANGE.

-AND JUST FORGET ABOUT GIRLS? -EXACTLY.

WHAT IF WE GET TO ONE OF THESE MUSEUMS

AND SEE A COUPLE OF DAMES? WE IGNORE THEM.

O.K. YOU GOT YOURSELF A DEAL.

PUT HER THERE.

AH, BUT WE SURE USED TO BE A GOOD TEAM, DIDN'T WE?

YEAH. YOU WITH THE MONEY, ME WITH THE BRAINS.

NOW, WAIT A MINUTE, WADSWORTH.

ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT I COULDN'T OPERATE WITHOUT MONEY?

NO, NO. I DIDN'T MEAN THAT.

I THINK THAT, UH, WELL, WE'VE HAD THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS.

YES, SIR. WHEN LANGLEY AND SMITH

ZEROED IN ON TARGET...

BULL'S-EYE EVERY TIME.

WELL, I...THINK I'LL GO FIND THAT BOOK ON ITALIAN ARCHITECTURE

I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO READ.

VERY CULTURAL.

[BUZZ]

BRIDGE. LIEUTENANT LANGLEY.

YES, SIR.

-THE EXEC WANTS TO SEE YOU. -ME?

HAVE YOU DONE SOMETHING I DON'T KNOW ABOUT?

I HAVEN'T EVEN DONE ANYTHING I DON'T KNOW ABOUT.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

COME IN.

YES, SIR?

LIEUTENANT, WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR SHORE LEAVE?

WELL, SIR, LIEUTENANT LANGLEY AND I HAVE DECIDED

TO SPEND OUR TIME STUDYING ITALIAN ARCHITECTURE.

THAT'S ONE WAY OF PUTTING IT.

ANY PARTICULAR RUIN IN MIND?

SIR?

OH, NO, SIR.

GOOD. I WANT YOU TO TAKE ON A RATHER UNUSUAL ASSIGNMENT.

YES, SIR.

THERE'S A GIRL ASHORE NAMED MICHELE PERRIER.

SHE'LL BE WITH MY WIFE.

YOU THINK YOU COULD PRETEND THAT YOU KNOW HER

-REAL WELL? -SIR?

I CAN'T GIVE YOU AN ORDER HERE, OF COURSE,

BUT IF YOU HANDLE THE ASSIGNMENT WELL

YOU'LL BE UNSELFISHLY ASSISTING A FELLOW OFFICER.

-SIR? -YOU SEE, LIEUTENANT.

MA'AMSELLE PERRIER WILL BE WAITING FOR THE OFFICER

IN QUESTION ON THE DOCK.

ALSO WAITING FOR THE OFFICER IN QUESTION

IS HIS FIANCEE.

MAY I QUESTION WHO THIS OFFICER IN QUESTION IS?

LIEUTENANT LANGLEY.

PETE?

BUT, SIR, HE'S MY BEST FRIEND.

MA'AMSELLE, YOU SAY?

THAT'S RIGHT, LIEUTENANT

AND I UNDERSTAND THAT MA'AMSELLE IS QUITE A DISH.

AND THERE HE WAS, SENDING ME OFF TO MUSEUMS

WHILE HE HAS A FIANCEE AND A MA'AMSELLE WAITING FOR HIM.

IN ALL FAIRNESS, HE'S NOT EXPECTING EITHER ONE.

WELL, SIR, IN ALL FAIRNESS

I THINK IT'S MY DUTY TO UNSELFISHLY ASSIST THIS FELLOW OFFICER

IN HIS TIME OF NEED.

BILLY.

YOU SURE IT'S ALL ARRANGED?

OH, IT'S ALL ARRANGED.

YOU'VE PROBABLY BEEN PICKED UP

ON SMITTY'S BUILT-IN RADAR.

BILLY.

[BONNIE] BILLY.

SEE YOU LATER, BUDDY.

MICHELE!

OH, PLEASE, LIEUTENANT.

I'M JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS, MA'AM.

PETE.

WELL, TONI.

AH, BUT YOU'RE IN CHICAGO.

WANT TO BET?

WELL, AH, WHY? I MEAN...

LET'S FACE IT.

I'M CANNES. YOU'RE BEEF.

TOGETHER-- CANNED BEEF.

THAT'S VERY COZY

BUT WHAT'S THAT GOT TO DO WITH ME?

OH, DID I FORGET TO TELL YOU?

I'M GETTING MARRIED.

MARRIED?

WELL, CONGRATULATIONS, DARLING.

WHO'S THE LUCKY MAN?

YOU.

ME.

AFTER ALL, YOU DID PROPOSE TO ME.

AH...YES, I KNOW, BUT I--

I WAS ONLY 7 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME.

NOW, DARLING, YOU KNOW IT'S INEVITABLE.

OUR PARENTS HAVE MADE PERFECT ARRANGEMENTS.

[SMITTY] LIEUTENANT LANGLEY,

I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET A FRIEND OF MINE.

THIS IS MADEMOISELLE MICHELE PERRIER.

A PLEASURE, I ASSURE YOU, MADEMOISELLE.

-HELLO, MRS. BRADVILLE. -HELLO, PETE.

AND THIS, I HAVE NO DOUBT, IS YOUR, AH, FIANCEE.

-HUH? -FIANCEE.

OH, AH, TONI DENHAM, LIEUTENANT SMITH.

IT'S A PLEASURE. HE NEVER EVEN TOLD ME ABOUT YOU.

PETE'S NOT THE TYPE WHO WEARS HIS HEART ON HIS SLEEVE.

HOW ABOUT ALL OF US GOING TO HAVE A DRINK?

UH, MAYBE EVEN A COUPLE OF DRINKS.

-WE CAN TAKE ANNABELLE. -ANNABELLE?

A REAL SCARLET WOMAN. YOU'LL LOVE HER.

ANY FRIEND OF YOURS IS A FRIEND OF MINE.

HEY.

WHERE IS HE?

I GUESS HE'S JUST NOT COMING ASHORE.

WHAT?

I'M ON MY HONEYMOON, BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW IT.

BONNIE

DON'T YOU THINK YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD HIM YOU WERE COMING?

OH, BILLY'S GOT A THING ABOUT THIS KIND OF THING.

HE DOESN'T DIG THIS WHOLE SEA GULL ROUTINE.

HE SAYS, "IT'S UNETHICAL AND UNMORAL."

WELL, I WOULDN'T GO EXACTLY THAT FAR,

BUT, WELL, MAYBE HE HAS A POINT.

I, UH...

I GUESS YOU BETTER COME ABOARD WITH ME.

COULD I DO THAT?

YOU'RE A TAXPAYER, AREN'T YOU?

COME ON. BE MY GUEST.

GOSH, I'M EXCITED. AREN'T YOU?

I WISH I WERE THE WAY YOU ARE.

AREN'T YOU ANXIOUS TO SEE YOUR HUSBAND?

I'M ANXIOUS TO SEE MORE OF HIM.

I WASN'T KIDDING WHEN I SAID

THIS WAS MY LAST TIME AROUND THE SEA GULL CIRCUIT.

10 YEARS' WORTH, AND I'VE HAD IT.

I WANT A HOME AND SOME KIDS

AND A MAN AROUND THE HOUSE.

WELL, HOW DOES HE FEEL ABOUT IT?

OH, ALL HE WANTS IS A PROMOTION TO FULL COMMANDER

AND A LIFE AT SEA.

WELL, JUST TELL HIM.

THAT'S WHAT I'M HERE FOR

BUT IT'S NOT EASY

TO SAY THAT IT'S ME OR THE NAVY.

COME ON. LET'S GO.

-PARK IT, MY GOOD MAN. -SIGNORE.

-IT'S RATHER NICE HERE. -WHOO HOO HOO.

WELL, WHEN YOU'RE WITH US, FIRST CLASS ALL THE WAY, RIGHT, PETE?

THAT'S RIGHT, WADSWORTH.

LET'S CUT THE WADSWORTH JAZZ, HUH?

OH. SORRY. I'LL GET THE AMMUNITION.

-BUON GIORNO. -BUON GIORNO.

OH, NO. NO. PLEASE, LIEUTENANT, DON'T ASK ME TO MAKE ONE OF THOSE.

FOUR. FOUR TORPEDOES ON THE WING AND FLY THEM OVER TO THE TABLE.

TORPEDOES.

YOU KNOW, THE NAVY DRINK.

YES, LIEUTENANT, I KNOW

BUT ME, I'M ALCOHOLIC ARTIST.

NO, NO, NO. I MEAN, I'M ARTIST WITH ALCOHOL.

MYSELF, I CANNOT COMMIT SUCH SACRILEGE

BUT YOU, PLEASE.

AH! THANKS, PAL.

SO I TOLD THE ADMIRAL

I SAID, UH, "ADMIRAL--"

OH, EXCUSE ME. MY HAIR IS A MESS.

HMM.

HA HA HA!

OH, WELL. THE ADMIRAL DIDN'T LISTEN EITHER.

I'VE BEEN DYING TO KNOW WHAT IT IS YOU LUG AROUND IN THAT BRIEFCASE.

IT'S, UH, IT'S TOP SECRET.

-IT'S THE NAVY'S NEWEST WEAPON. -OH.

DID YOU KNOW THAT IF AN ENEMY AGENT GOT AHOLD OF THIS...

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT I'M NOT A SPY?

WELL, I CAN HOPE, CAN'T I?

PLEASE, DON'T LET ME DISCONCERT YOU.

MY PLEASURE, I ASSURE YOU.

-WHAT ARE YOU MAKING? -TORPEDOES.

POSITIVELY GUARANTEED TO PUT HAIR ON YOUR--

I MEAN, TO MAKE A MAN OUT OF YOU.

NO. THAT ISN'T QUITE RIGHT EITHER

BECAUSE WHO WOULD WANT TO MAKE A MAN OUT OF YOU?

WELL, NOW, THAT'S THE RUM.

NOW, LET'S SEE.

OOH, MARASCHINO CHERRIES?

VERY GOOD.

SAY, WE MAKE QUITE A TEAM.

VODKA.

CUCUMBER SLICES.

EXCELLENT.

I WAS HOPING FOR SOME TIME WITH YOU ALONE.

BRANDY.

WELL, ANYTIME, ANY...PLACE.

A LEMON PEEL.

I LEAVE THAT TO YOU.

OH, YEAH. THAT'S, AH, THAT'S KIND OF A PROBLEM.

AH, CREME DE MENTHE.

PERHAPS YOU'RE NOT UP TO THE PROBLEM.

OH, THE DASH OF BITTERS.

STIR.

NOW, YOU TAKE THESE TO THAT YOUNG COUPLE OVER THERE.

YES, SIR.

AND, AH...

LEAVE THE PROBLEM TO ME.

THAT WILL BE 25,000 LIRA, SIR.

-25,000. -SI.

AH, THAT'S $40.

FOR FOUR DRINKS?

$40 WILL COVER IT, SIGNORE.

UH-HUH.

UH, O.K.

JUST CHARGE IT TO MY HOTEL BILL.

OH, AND ADD A FIVE FOR YOURSELF.

GRAZIE. AH, MOMENTO, SIGNORE.

YOU HAVE A ROOM IN THE HOTEL?

OH. OH, YEAH. THAT'S NECESSARY, ISN'T IT?

WELL, JUST CALL THE DESK

AND GET A ROOM FOR ME.

SI, SIGNORE.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

THERE IS ONLY THE BRIDAL SUITE, SIGNORE.

THE BRI--

WELL, THAT'S VERY APPROPRIATE.

I'LL TAKE IT. LIEUTENANT LANGLEY.

SI.

YOU SAY TO CHARGE THE DRINKS TO YOUR ROOM, EH?

BUT YOU HAVE NO ROOM IN THE HOTEL

SO I BOOK YOU THE BRIDAL SUITE.

AND CHARGE THE HOTEL BILL TO THE BAR BILL.

IT'S ALL VERY SIMPLE.

SI.

LUIGI?SI.

LIEUTENANT LANGLEY.

-HERE YOU ARE, SMITTY. -THANK YOU.

-WOW! -HA HA HA!

SHALL WE THROW THESE LITTLE GEMS DOWN AND MEET AT THE BAR AT 8:30?

-YEAH. GOOD IDEA. -GREAT.

DOWN THE HATCH.

RANGE-- 1800.

BLUEBIRD OUT.

IT'S BONNIE!

IT'S HER!

I TUNED HER IN ALL THE WAY FROM SOUTH DAKOTA.

WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT SOUTH DAKOTA?

BONNIE.

HONEY?

-HI, LIZ. WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG? -OH, I LIKE THAT.

I COME ALL THE WAY, AND WHAT DO I GET? "HI, LIZ. WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?"

WELL, UM, UM, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?

OH, A LITTLE EXCITEMENT, A LITTLE SURPRISE.

A LITTLE HINT YOU'RE GLAD TO SEE ME.

GLAD TO SEE YOU?

YES, SIR.

ANY DOUBTS LEFT?

NOT FOR THE TIME BEING, NO.

HEY! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE HOME

MAKING A HOME FOR ME TO COME HOME TO.

AREN'T YOU GLAD I'M HERE?

WELL, YEAH, YEAH, BUT...WELL...

GO ON.

I THOUGHT WE TALKED THIS WHOLE THING OVER. IT'S A MATTER OF PRINCIPLE.

I THOUGHT IT WAS A PRINCIPLE

THAT A HUSBAND AND WIFE GET TO SEE EACH OTHER

YOU KNOW, ONCE IN A WHILE.

IT IS, BUT I JUST WANTED OUR MARRIAGE

TO GET OFF TO THE RIGHT START.

I'M NOT SO SURE I WANT TO START

WHAT I CAME ALL THIS WAY TO START.

WHAT KIND OF A THING IS THAT TO SAY?

I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M DOING HERE.

WAIT A MINUTE. WHERE DID YOU GET THE MONEY TO GET HERE?

I DIDN'T GO INTO OUR SAVINGS, IF THAT'S WHAT'S WORRYING YOU.

ALRIGHT. WHERE DID YOU GET IT?

COME ON. WHERE?

BONNIE.

I DID A FEW DATES WITH A BAND.

OH, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

THE MINUTE I LET YOU ALONE--NIGHTCLUBS

AND HANGING AROUND WITH A BUNCH OF HIPSTERS.

WELL, IT'S UNETHICAL.

CHURCH SOCIABLES

AND DANCES IN THE BASEMENT IN THE OLD YMCA.

YMCA. WHAT DOES THE "M" STAND FOR? MEN!

BILLY.

YOU DON'T TRUST ME, DO YOU?

WHAT WILL MY MOTHER AND MY GRANDMOTHER SAY ABOUT THIS?

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT THEY'LL SAY.

THEY GAVE ME THE REST OF THE MONEY.

TH-THEY WHAT? WHY?

BECAUSE YOUR MOTHER WANTED TO BE

THE YOUNGEST GRANDMOTHER IN SOUTH DAKOTA

AND YOUR GRANDMOTHER WANTED TO BE THE YOUNGEST GREAT-GRANDMOTHER.

-WAIT A MINUTE. -LET ME OUT OF HERE!

-BONNIE, WAIT A MINUTE. -I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THIS GIRL, PULASKI?

-I'M NOT DOING ANYTHING. -HOW DO I GET OFF THIS BOAT?

JUST GO STRAIGHT AHEAD AND TURN LEFT.

YOU OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED, A MARRIED MAN.

WHAT WOULD YOUR WIFE SAY?

-THIS IS MY WIFE! -OH, SURE.

-SHE IS! -I AM.

AW, HONEY, COME ON, LET ME TAKE YOU ASHORE.

[BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ]

MICHELE. COME IN.

WELL, I... CERTAINLY LIKE GIRLS WHO ARE PROMPT.

I'M NOT PROMPT. I'M EARLY.

WELL, YOU COULD NEVER BE TOO EARLY.

I WAS AFRAID YOU MIGHT CHANGE YOUR MIND.

CHANGE MY MIND? OH, NEVER.

MMM, IT'S MUCH NICER HERE THAN IN A RESTAURANT.

YOU ARE SO RIGHT.

OH, HERE. LET ME TAKE YOUR THINGS.

OOH, I NEED THAT.

AH, MICHELE, YOU LOOK, AH...

UH!

THANK YOU.

OH, AH, IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME FOR JUST ONE SECOND.

POUR YOURSELF A DRINK

AND I'LL SLIP INTO SOMETHING

A LITTLE LESS COMFORTABLE.

OH, DON'T BOTHER.

YOU CAN DRESS LATER.

THIS SHOULDN'T TAKE LONG, I THINK.

AH, WELL, HONEY, LET'S NOT RUSH RIGHT INTO ANYTHING.

FIRST WE'LL HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT

TO DRINK, A FEW LAUGHS

AND...THAT WAY, WE'LL GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER

A LITTLE BETTER.

YOU WILL FEEL MORE KINDLY DISPOSED TO MICHELE

IF SHE HAS SOMETHING TO EAT AND DRINK

BEFORE WE GET DOWN TO BUSINESS?

MORE KINDLY DISPOSED.

HONEY, IF I FELT ANY MORE KINDLY DISPOSED, I'D--

[CLEARS THROAT]

BUT I ALSO LIKE A GIRL WHO ENJOYS

ALL THE BASIC THINGS OF LIFE

LIKE EATING, DRINKING.

THEN I WILL EAT AND DRINK.

GOOD.

CHICKEN.

LOBSTER.

COLD CUTS.

BROCHETTE.

SALAD AND CHAMPAGNE.

OH, YES.

AH, YES WHAT?

YES. CHICKEN, LOBSTERS, COLD CUTS

BROCHETTE, SALAD, AND CHAMPAGNE.

I WOULD LIKE YOU TO LIKE ME VERY MUCH.

DO YOU REALIZE THIS TOOTHPICK WAS ONCE A GIANT OAK?

AND THIS... A NOBLE REDWOOD.

DO YOU THINK IF WE TOOK THEM OUT AND PLANTED THEM...

-TOOTHPICK TREES. -RIGHT. OUR FORTUNE IS MADE.

LET'S HAVE ANOTHER DRINK.

AT THESE PRICES?

I MEAN, I'M STILL UNDER SEDATION FROM THAT TORPEDO.

IS THIS THING RIGHT?

YEP. 9:15.

WHEN DID YOU LAST SEE PETE?

COUPLE OF HOURS AGO. HOW ABOUT MICHELE?

HMM...WELL, LET'S SEE NOW.

I FELL ASLEEP--

WELL, LET'S FACE IT. I PASSED RIGHT OUT ABOUT 7:00

AND THEN I WOKE UP.

I CAME TO ABOUT 8:00

AND SHE WASN'T THERE.

HMM.

WELL, PETE WILL COME UP WITH SOME EXPLANATION.

HMM, YOU CAN FORGET THE LOYALTY BIT.

OH, NO, NO. IT WASN'T LOYALTY.

IT'S JUST THAT I CAN'T FIGURE THIS GUY OUT--

STANDING UP A GIRL LIKE...

WELL, WHAT I MEANT WAS, UH...

UH, DIDN'T MEAN THAT AT ALL.

WELL, THAT'S ALRIGHT.

I LIKED IT THE WAY IT WAS.

LIEUTENANT SMITH

YOU'VE JUST TALKED YOURSELF INTO A DATE FOR THIS EVENING.

YEAH? YOU, ME?

LISTEN, WE'LL TAKE A LITTLE WALK ON THE BEACH

UNTIL WE FIND SOME LITTLE PLACE

AND THEN WE'LL HAVE SOME LITTLE SOFT MUSIC

A LITTLE LOW LIGHT, A LITTLE BREAD AND WINE.

YEAH. WHY NOT?

YOU KNOW, UH, BACHELORS HAVE PARTIES BEFORE THEY GET MARRIED.

I MEAN, I DON'T SEE ANY REASON WHY A GIRL CAN'T, UH...

HEY, WHAT WOULD YOU--

WHAT WOULD YOU CALL A FEMALE BACHELOR?

TONI.

YEAH. TONI.

BARTENDER!

IS IT REFUELED?

SI.

WHAT?

HOW ABOUT THAT?

CHAMPAGNE. THE BEST. KEEP IT FLOWING.

NOTHING'S TOO GOOD FOR THE WIFE OF A FULL COMMANDER, YOU KNOW?

OH, NO. NOTHING.

FROM NOW ON, IT'S WINE, WOMEN, AND--

OH, SPEAKING OF WINE

SOME OF THE OFFICERS AND MEN OF THEMAITLANDAND THEIR SEA GULLS, OF COURSE

HAVE BEEN INVITED TO A WINE FESTIVAL IN OUR NEXT PORT OF CALL, LARETO.

SO WE'LL START THE CELEBRATION HERE...

AND FINISH IT...

THERE.

YES, WE WILL FINISH IT THERE.

WELL, HOW ABOUT THIS, HUH?

WHAT, HERE?

SURE. IT'S COZY, ISN'T IT?

SURE, IT IS, BUT IT'S TOO BAD THERE'S NOTHING TO SIT ON.

WELL, UH...

YOU'RE RIGHT. IT'S TOO BAD.

YOU DON'T THINK WE COULD RUMMAGE AROUND IN THERE AND FIND SOMETHING THAT MIGHT DO?

IN THERE? DON'T BE SILLY. THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN THERE.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

IT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING TO SIT ON.

HMM. WONDER HOW THAT GOT IN THERE.

I DON'T KNOW. I WONDER WHAT ELSE IS IN THERE.

NOTHING. TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, WILL YOU? THERE'S NOTHING ELSE.

O.K., WADSWORTH, WHAT IS IT? I GIVE UP.

NOW, LOOK, NOT WADSWORTH. SMITTY, HUH?

ALRIGHT, SMITTY. I STILL GIVE UP.

GIVE ME THOSE THINGS, WILL YOU?

JUST REMEMBER YOU'RE AN ENGAGED WOMAN.

WELL, MAYBE YOU CAN PRETEND THAT I'M NOT.

I MEAN, WITH A ROUTINE LIKE THIS, I GOT TO SEE IT.

O.K.

ALRIGHTY.

[INFLATING PILLOW]

PILLOWS.

IT'S VERY THOUGHTFUL.

GO ON. SHOW ME MORE.

JUST REMEMBER, IT'S YOUR IDEA.

I, UH, I BELIEVE YOU MENTIONED... SOFT LIGHTS?

YOU WANTED MUSIC.

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

MUSIC.

I THINK YOU BETTER STOP RIGHT NOW.

OH, AND BREAD. YOU ASKED FOR BREAD.

-WELL, SANDWICHES? -OH.

AND, UH, WINE OF A SORT.

WHAT DO YOU WANT? VODKA, GIN, SCOTCH?

ANYTHING.

SOME ICE CUBES.

YOU KNOW, I HOPE YOU NEVER DECIDE TO PUT THIS THING ON THE OPEN MARKET

ALTHOUGH I MUST ADMIT THAT IT IS RATHER EFFECTIVE.

THERE.

TO US.

YOU KNOW, THE WAY I FEEL RIGHT NOW

I COULD ALMOST BELIEVE IN THOSE TOOTHPICK TREES.

NOW, YOU FEEL KINDLY DISPOSED TOWARD ME?

HONEY, I'VE BEEN HAVING THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS ABOUT YOU

FOR THE LAST HALF-HOUR.

GOOD.

THEN THAT WILL MAKE WHAT IS TO FOLLOW

MUCH MORE PLEASANT.

WELL, WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?

SHALL WE ADJOURN TO THE SCENE OF OPERATIONS?

NOW, UH, JUST LIE BACK...

COMFORTABLE?

WELL, AS YOU SO CHARMINGLY PUT IT

SHALL WE GET DOWN TO BUSINESS?

YES. LET'S.

BILLS?

UNPAID BILLS.

THEY'RE MINE.

MMM.

OH, NO.

NO. I DON'T BELIEVE IT.

YOU'RE NOT A BILL COLLECTOR.

YOU MEAN THAT'S WHY YOU CAME HERE?

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

ASK A SILLY QUESTION, GET A SILLY ANSWER.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

SO, THAT'S WHY YOU WANTED ME TO FEEL

A LITTLE MORE KINDLY DISPOSED TOWARD YOU, HUH?

SO I'D BE CHEERFUL ABOUT PAYING THE BILLS?

-OF COURSE. -OF COURSE.

YOU DID SAY BUSINESS, DIDN'T YOU?

WELL, YOU CAN HARDLY BLAME ME FOR NOT SUSPECTING.

AFTER ALL, YOU'RE NOT THE USUAL FELLOW

WITH THE DERBY AND CIGAR.

NO. I'M NOT.

I'M NOT REALLY A BILL COLLECTOR.

I'M AN ACTRESS

BUT DURING THE SUMMER, THERE ARE NOT MANY THEATERS OPEN IN PARIS

AND--AND A GIRL MUST EAT.

SO I TAKE THE JOB WITH FRISENAI, FRISENAI, AND FRISENAI.

YOU WOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED THEM--

THREE DERBIES AND THREE CIGARS.

I RECEIVE A COMMISSION ON WHATEVER I COLLECT.

IT KEEPS ME UNTIL THE THEATERS ARE OPEN AGAIN.

I SEE.

YOU KNOW, MICHELE, I'M NOT A DEADBEAT EITHER.

WHEN I WROTE CHECKS FOR THESE THINGS

I DID SO IN GOOD FAITH.

I GUESS HE'S FINALLY DONE IT.

WHO?

THE OLD BOY.

HE'S BEEN THREATENING TO CUT OFF MY ALLOWANCE

UNLESS I...

WELL, MICHELE, YOU'LL GET YOUR MONEY AND YOUR COMMISSION.

GOOD.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

UH, TELL ME ONE THING.

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO DO IT THIS WAY?

BECAUSE I WAS INTERESTED.

INTERESTED?

MMM. A MAN WHO BUYS A PICASSO-- THE SAILOR.

ONLY A LITTLE ONE.

AND BECAUSE IT IS THE SAME MAN

WHO BUYS AN AUSTRIAN PORCELAIN STOVE

30 DOZEN ROSES--

10 DOZEN AT A TIME.

AND 50 CHILDREN'S FOOTBALLS

AND A 1,200-FRANC BLACK NEGLIGEE.

THAT, I SAY TO MYSELF

THAT IS A MAN I WOULD LIKE TO SEE.

THAT REMINDS ME.

I'LL HAVE TO WIRE MY FATHER AND THANK HIM FOR CUTTING OFF MY ALLOWANCE.

I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER IF I GO NOW.

MY THINGS ARE THERE, NO?

MICHELE...

THOSE BILLS-- YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LET ME OFF THE HOOK SO EASILY, ARE YOU?

-I THINK YOU WILL PAY. -AREN'T YOU GOING TO HOUND ME?

THREATEN ME, NEVER LET ME OUT OF YOUR SIGHT? YOU'LL GIVE BILL COLLECTORS A BAD NAME.

I'LL GO RIGHT OUT AND BUY A DERBY AND A CIGAR.

-IT'S ROUND. -HMM?

-THE BED--IT'S ROUND. -YEAH.

YES, BUT WHERE DO YOU PUT THE PILLOW?

WELL, YOU...

PUT IT RIGHT NEXT TO WHERE THE OTHER PERSON PUTS THEIR PILLOW.

OH.

YES, BUT HOW WOULD THE OTHER PERSON

KNOW THE CORRECT PLACE?

UH, NEXT TO THE OTHER PERSON'S PILLOW

IS ALWAYS THE CORRECT PLACE.

I'VE NEVER SEEN A ROUND BED BEFORE.

WELL, UH...

WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO STAY

AND SORT OF LOOK AT IT FOR A LITTLE WHILE?

NO.

I DON'T THINK THAT WOULD BE SUCH A GOOD IDEA.

OH.

YEAH, MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT--

WOULDN'T BE.

TELL ME I'M OUT OF MY MIND.

YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR MIND.

WHAT?

YOU SAID TO SAY THAT.

IT'S ALRIGHT, THOUGH.

I THINK IT'S CATCHING.

I THINK IT'S THE GENIE.

WHAT GENIE?

THE ONE THAT CAME OUT OF THAT BAG.

OH, YES, THAT... THAT GENIE.

HE'S A...

HE'S A CLEVER LITTLE FELLOW, THAT ONE.

HE'S BRILLIANT.

DO YOU THINK HE'S THE ONE

THAT MADE ME ASK YOU TO MARRY ME?

I DON'T KNOW.

I THINK HE'S THE ONE THAT MADE ME SAY YES.

[ALARM RINGING]

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT?

NO, IT CAN'T BE.

[SHUTS OFF ALARM]

THE NAVY JUST DOESN'T LIKE ITS PERSONNEL OVERSTAYING LIBERTY.

WELL, I GUESS IT'S TIME TO PUT THE GENIE BACK.

HMM?

YEAH.

THIS GENIE ISN'T GOING TO FIT IN HERE.

DEFLATE.

HOW?

JUST...

[RUSHING AIR]

MICHELE, BACK SO SOON?

DID YOU HAVE A NICE EVENING?

VERY NICE.

YOU WERE ON THE BEACH?

UM...YES.

IN FACT, WITH SMITTY.

OH.

YOU DON'T MIND?

NO.

AND BECAUSE I CAN TELL YOU I WAS WITH PETE TONIGHT.

YOU DON'T MIND?

NO.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[MUSIC GROWS LOUDER]

HEY, MONKEY.

O.K., MONKEY, COME ON DOWN.

YES, YOU.

[MUSIC PLAYING LOUDLY]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

SCUSI, SIGNORA!

[SHUTS OFF MUSIC]

GRAZIE.

AAH!

REFILL.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?

ME? UH, I WAITED FOR YOU FOR OVER AN HOUR AT THE MARGUTTA BAR.

OH.

BUT I SAID HERE AT THE DORIA.

OH. SORRY. I MUST HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD.

YEAH.

YOU, UH, MISSED THE GIRLS, HUH?

YEAH.

NO RUSH, SIR. LIBERTY BOAT'S DELAYED A HALF AN HOUR.

HALF AN HOUR? THAT'S RIGHT.

EXCUSE ME A MINUTE, WILL YOU, SMITTY?

YEAH, YEAH.

GET ME THE MARGUTTA HOTEL, PLEASE.

GET ME THE MARGUTTA HOTEL QUICKLY, PLEASE.

GOOD NIGHT, TONI.

BONNE NUIT, MICHELE.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

HELLO?

MICHELE?

OH, PETE!

MICHELE, IS THAT YOU?

OH, PETE, IS THAT YOU?

I GUESS IT MUST BE US, ISN'T IT?

YES, I GUESS IT IS.

THE BOAT'S LATE.

I'VE GOT A WHOLE HALF-HOUR. CAN I COME OVER?

OH, YES. NO!

YOU CAN'T.

WHY NOT?

WELL, BECAUSE OF...

OH, YOU GOT A ROOMMATE, HUH?

I GOT IT-- THE BRIDAL SUITE.

THE BRI--

SURE. MY SUITE AT THE HOTEL.

IT'S PAID FOR TILL NOON TOMORROW.

WILL YOU BE THERE?

I'LL BE THERE.

I HAVE SOME LAST-MINUTE SHOPPING TO DO.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

HELLO?

TONI?

IS THAT YOU, SMITTY?

IN PERSON.

I MEAN, I'D LIKE TO BE IN PERSON.

THE BOAT'S LATE. CAN I COME OVER?

I'LL GIVE YOU FIVE SECONDS. GOOD-BYE.

[FOOTSTEPS]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

[KNOCKING]

FOR YOU.

OH, NO, DARLING. IT'S ONE OF THOSE ARTIFICIAL ONES.

IT...

WELL, IT'S STILL VERY NICE.

I, UH...I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS ARTIFICIAL

WHEN I STOLE IT FROM THE HOTEL LOBBY.

NO ONE'S EVER GIVEN ME

A STOLEN ARTIFICIAL ROSE BEFORE.

TONI?

I--YOU KNOW I'VE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH YOU.

ME, TOO...

WITH YOU.

I'VE NEVER BEEN IN LOVE BEFORE.

NEITHER HAVE I.

JUST ENGAGED.

YEAH, TO ME. NOW.

YOU KNOW, UH, SHIP PULLS IN AT LARETO ON TUESDAY.

WE COULD BE MARRIED THERE.

WHY NOT HERE?

WELL, I'D LIKE TO, DARLING, BUT...

I'VE GOT TO BE BACK IN A FEW MINUTES.

NONSENSE. YOU CAN WRITE A LETTER TO THE ADMIRAL OR SOMEBODY.

EXPLAIN THE SITUATION

AND TELL THEM YOU'RE RESIGNING.

BUT, DARLING, I PLAN TO STAY IN THE NAVY UNTIL I RETIRE.

UNTIL YOU RETIRE.

THE NAVY CAN'T KEEP US APART, DARLING.

WHEREVER THE FLEET PULLS IN,

YOU'LL BE THERE WAITING FOR ME.

I WILL? JUST THINK OF IT, DARLING--

ISTANBUL, TANGIER, MAJORCA--

AND THEN WHEN I'M TRANSFERRED TO THE PACIFIC--

HONG KONG.

BUT, DARLING, YOU CAN'T EXPECT ME TO BECOME A SEA GULL.

OH, BUT OF COURSE, DARLING.

I MEAN, WELL, AFTER ALL,

WHEN A WOMAN LOVES A MAN...

OH, BUT, DARLING... MY PARENTS.

OH, O.K. UH, IF THAT'S THE WAY YOU FEEL,

THEY CAN COME ALONG, TOO.

WELL, NO, DARLING, THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT.

WELL, UH, JUST WHAT DO YOU MEAN, DARLING?

WELL, I MEAN, DARLING, THAT IF YOU EXPECT ME

TO SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE

TRAMPING ALL OVER THE WORLD...

THIS SEEMS TO BE TURNING INTO

THE SHORTEST ENGAGEMENT IN HISTORY.

WELL, MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE LOOKED

BEFORE YOU LEAPED, DARLING.

OH, OH, OH.

LISTEN, DARLING, I MEAN, IF YOU THINK THAT I'M GOING TO MARRY

A STUCK-UP FEMALE WHO'S TOO PROUD TO FOLLOW THE FLEET...

YOU DON'T WANT A WOMAN, DARLING.

YOU WANT A SEA GULL.

THAT'S RIGHT, AND IF THAT'S THE WAY YOU FEEL ABOUT IT--

WELL, THAT'S EXACTLY THE WAY I FEEL.

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN.

I MEAN, ANY MAN WHO CARRIES AROUND

A DO-IT-YOURSELF INSTANT SEDUCTION KIT...

AND AS FOR THIS...

THANK YOU. IT'S A PERFECT ADDITION.

OUT!

YOU KNOW, I UNDERSTAND THAT QUITE A FEW WOMEN--

WELL, THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY MAD ABOUT DANCING AROUND

WITH A ROSE CLAMPED IN THEIR TEETH.

YES, SIR. QUITE A FEW WOMEN.

[DOORBELL BUZZES]

HELLO, MICHELE.

HELLO.

I'M, UH...

I'M GLAD YOU CAME.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE SURE YOU DIDN'T MIND MY PHONING?

I DIDN'T MIND.

I SORT OF HAD TO.

I'M GLAD YOU DID.

OH, HERE, LET ME TAKE YOUR COAT.

OH, I WAS IN BED.

DID YOU FINALLY FIGURE IT OUT?

FIGURE WHAT OUT?

WHERE THE PILLOWS GO.

OH, UH, YEAH.

I THOUGHT ABOUT THAT LITTLE PROBLEM.

SO HAVE I,

BUT AT SCHOOL IN GEOMETRY--

THAT'S WHAT YOU STUDIED IN GEOMETRY?

YES, WHEN I WAS A GIRL.

DIDN'T YOU WHEN YOU WERE A SCHOOLBOY?

NOT EXACTLY. NO.

BUT I'M GROWN-UP NOW.

OH. YES.

AND SO ARE YOU.

UH, SO, MICHELE...

IT'S DIFFERENT NOW, ISN'T IT?

IS IT?

YOU KNOW IT IS,

AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO BE SENSIBLE

ABOUT THIS WHOLE THING.

SENSIBLE?

OF COURSE.

AFTER ALL, WE'RE NOT KIDS ANYMORE, ARE WE?

OH, NO, WE ARE NOT KIDS.

THAT'S RIGHT.

WE'RE TWO MATURE, INTELLIGENT ADULTS, AREN'T WE?

WE ARE?

OF COURSE.

AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO ACT LIKE

TWO MATURE, INTELLIGENT ADULTS, RIGHT?

OH. ALRIGHT.

RIGHT.

YOU KNOW, YOU'RE THE LOVELIEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN.

AHEM.

THAT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SENSIBLE, NO?

NO, NO.

ALRIGHT.

LET US BE SENSIBLE.

YEAH.

AH, AH, AH, AH.

OVER HERE.

NOW...

NOW LET'S BE PRACTICAL ABOUT THIS THING.

LET'S--LET'S NOT GET CARRIED AWAY.

THE POINT IS, MICHELE...

THE POINT IS...

YES?

THE POINT IS YOU'VE GOT THE MOST MARVELOUS EYES

IN THE WORLD.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

TO SMOKE.

WHY?

BECAUSE IF I DON'T SMOKE,

GOOD-BYE SENSIBLE ADULT

AND HELLO DROOLING GEOMETRY STUDENT.

IT'S REALLY SO IMPORTANT TO BE SENSIBLE?

IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO...

TO JUST FEEL?

WELL--WELL, YOU SEE, THAT'S--THAT'S WHAT'S DANGEROUS

BECAUSE, UH, WELL, THERE'S SO MUCH INVOLVED.

I KNOW.

THERE IS TONI AND YOUR FATHER--

YEAH. HER FATHER AND THE WHOLE...MESS.

OH. THAT IS WHY YOU CALLED ME TO MEET YOU HERE--

TO EXPLAIN ABOUT TONI AND YOUR FATHER

AND TO BE SENSIBLE?

WELL, YES.

I UNDERSTAND.

I MUST BE SENSIBLE, TOO.

GOOD-BYE, MY SENSIBLE FRIEND.

HULLDOWN, HAVE YOU SEEN PULASKI?

HE'S IN THE BRIG.

YOU KNOW WHAT HE DID, SIR? HE DESERTED MY POST.

NOT ONLY THAT, HE DID IT TO CHASE AFTER A DAME.

NOT ONLY THAT,

THE DAME HE WAS CHASING AFTER WAS HIS WIFE.

I WANT YOU TO SEND A MESSAGE

TO SOMEONE AT, UH, SANTA MARGHERITA.

SHOOT.

IT'S TO...

COMMANDER M. PERRIER...

UH, MARGUTTA HOTEL...

I WANT TO SEND A MESSAGE TOCOMMANDERTONI DENHAM

MICHELE?

OH, I'M SORRY, LIZ, BUT I HAVE A PROBLEM.

TONI, TALK.

NOT ME. I'VE GOT A PROBLEM, TOO.

BONNIE, YOU SAY SOMETHING FUNNY.

WE'RE PASSING A WHEEL GOING ALL BY ITSELF.

THAT'S FUNNY.

IT'S OURS!

ON MY HONOR, I WILL DO MY BEST

NOT TO SLIT MY THROAT.

WE BETTER PAY OUR RESPECTS TO THE MAYOR.

YOU THINK HE'S DRESSED FOR THE SPORT?

SEEMS APPROPRIATE, SIR.

GOOD LUCK.

[CHEERING]

[MUSIC STARTS PLAYING]

HEY, YOU, PULASKI.

YOU'RE ENJOYING YOURSELF, SEE?

OR WOULD YOU RATHER BE BACK IN THE BRIG?

ALRIGHT, CHIEF.

THEN SMILE, PULASKI.

SHOW EVERYBODY HOW HAPPY YOU ARE.

YES, CHIEF.

HEY, LOOK.

I FEEL AS IF I'VE SPENT THE LAST 24 HOURS

IN ONE OF THOSE HEALTH CLUBS.

OH!

OH!

OH. UH...

OH.

I WAS BEGINNING TO THINK YOU WEREN'T COMING.

I'M SURE YOU'RE GOING TO ENJOY IT.

I'M SURE I WILL,

BUT FIRST I MUST PHONE FRISENAI, FRISENAI, FRISENAI.

I DON'T THINK YOU'LL BE ABLE TO FIND ANY TELEPHONES HERE.

WE CAN LOOK.

WELL, I'LL, UH...

I'LL SHOW YOU AROUND.

SURE. WHY NOT?

HEY...

HAVE YOU TOLD HIM YET?

WHO AND WHAT?

YOUR HUSBAND--

HOW HE'S GOT TO CHOOSE BETWEEN YOU AND THE SEA.

NO, NOT YET.

BUT THIS TIME I'M GOING TO TELL HIM THE MINUTE I SEE HIM.

HEY! THERE HE IS!

LIZ!

LIZ!

I'VE BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE FOR YOU!

I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU, TOO.

WE'VE GOT A FEW THINGS TO TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW.

WE SURE DO.

YOU MISSED THE CURTAIN RAISER.

OH?

GUESS HOW I GOT HERE?

BY BOAT. I MEAN, SHIP.

HELICOPTER.

THE ADMIRAL SENT IT OVER FROM THE FLAGSHIP.

WELL...THAT SOUNDS VERY V.I.P.

DON'T TELL ME YOU'VE FORGOTTEN ALREADY.

YOUR OLD MAN'S ALMOST A FULL COMMANDER NOW.

NO, I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN.

YOU KNOW IT'S ILLEGAL

TO BE SERIOUS AT A WINE FESTIVAL?

YOU'RE A VERY HAPPY BOY, AREN'T YOU?

UH-HUH. I GOT AS MUCH AS ANY MAN COULD ASK FOR.

CERTAINLY MORE THAN I DESERVE.

WELL, YOU HAVEN'T GIVEN ME A MOMENT TO SAY...

HMM?

CONGRATULATIONS, COMMANDER.

THANK YOU.

AND I'M WITH YOU ALL THE WAY.

I'D BE NOTHING WITHOUT KNOWING THAT.

LET'S NOT DRAG THE FESTIVITIES DOWN.

YOU WAIT HERE, AND I'LL GET US SOME WINE.

EXCUSE ME, SIR.

COULD YOU TELL ME WHERE RADARMAN THIRD CLASS BILLY PULASKI IS?

NO, I'M AFRAID NOT.

WELL, THAT'S A FINE THING.

SUPPOSING AN EMERGENCY SUDDENLY HAPPENED

AND YOU REALLY NEEDED HIM?

WE CALL THEM SEA GULLS.

HI. HI, BONNIE.

I DON'T SUPPOSE YOU'VE SEEN

RADARMAN THIRD CLASS BILLY PULASKI, HAVE YOU?

UM, NOT LATELY.

OKAY I'LL JUST KEEP LOOKING.

HEY...

BET YOU'RE SURE GOING TO MISS IT, HUH?

WHAT AM I GOING TO MISS?

THE SEA...

ALL THAT SALT AIR.

SALT AIR?

YEAH, BUT YOU REALLY CAN'T BLAME LIZ-- MRS. BRADVILLE.

I MEAN, FOR WANTING TO SETTLE DOWN WITH YOU SOMEWHERE

AND GIVE UP SEA GULLING

AND HAVE LITTLE KIDS.

NO, NO. CAN'T BLAME HER AT ALL.

GOSH! BILLY MUST BE AROUND HERE SOMEPLACE.

WELL, NOW WHO'S LOOKING SERIOUS?

OH, IT'S JUST THAT...

WHEN I TOLD YOU MY PROMOTION WASN'T ACTUALLY OFFICIAL...

I KNOW. YOUR PHYSICAL HADN'T COME THROUGH YET.

NOW, YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS, LIZ,

BUT I'VE JUST TALKED TO A SIGNALMAN.

WELL, I'VE DEVELOPED AN ALLERGY.

WHAT?

TO SALT AIR.

[CHUCKLES]

HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT?

BEN, YOU MUST BE TERRIBLY DISAPPOINTED.

WELL, THAT'S A FUNNY THING, TOO.

I SHOULD BE, BUT...

IN A WAY, IT'S A RELIEF.

WONDERFUL DESK JOB IN WASHINGTON.

YOU REALLY FEEL THAT?

I KNOW IT'S A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT TO YOU, HONEY.

YOU'LL MISS TRAVELING AROUND, SEEING THE WORLD,

NO RESPONSIBILITIES.

BUT, UH, WELL...

GOT TO SETTLE DOWN SOMETIME.

HAVE US A COUPLE OF KIDS.

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.

LIKE YOU SAY,

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.

BONNIE!

BONNIE! HERE I AM!

YOU AGAIN!

WHY DON'T YOU GET LOST?

WHAT?

SHE SAID SHE GOT LOST, CHIEF.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THERE, BILLY?

TELL THE LADY, PULASKI.

I'M TRAMPLING GRAPES.

WHY?

WELL, TELL THE LADY, PULASKI.

'CAUSE I LIKE TO TRAMPLE GRAPES.

LISTEN. HONEY, HONEY...

I'M SORRY ABOUT ALL THOSE THINGS I SAID.

I KNOW YOU DIDN'T MEAN THEM.

AND I PROMISE NEVER TO LOSE MY TEMPER AGAIN.

AND I'LL NEVER BE JEALOUS, AND I'LL NEVER QUESTION YOU.

WHY DON'T YOU COME OUT OF THERE?

BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT TO COME OUT OF THERE, NOW, DO YOU, PULASKI?

NO, CHIEF.

SOME FIESTA.

UH, YOU ARE BONNIE PULASKI, EH?

UH-HUH.

AH!

OH!

YOUR FRIENDS TELL ME YOU SING.

I USED TO.

SHE GAVE IT UP.

YOU WILL SING FOR US, THEN.

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE!

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE. WAIT A MINUTE.

BACK INSIDE.

AW, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

THERE'S SMITTY.

AND...MICHELE.

DID YOU GET AHOLD OF MESSIEURS FRISENAI, FRISENAI, AND FRISENAI?

WHAT HAPPENED?

ARE YOU ALRIGHT?

I TH-THINK SO.

I--I HURT...

OH!

THAT--THAT FEELS MUCH BETTER.

GOOD.

I MEAN, IF I'M GOING TO TAKE THE MERCHANDISE ON APPROVAL,

I DON'T WANT IT ALL BROKEN UP, DO I?

UH-UH.

LISTEN, YOU WAIT HERE JUST A MINUTE.

WAIT JUST A MINUTE.

TONI, WE'VE GOT TO HAVE A LITTLE TALK.

[MUSIC STARTS]

YOU DANCE?

THAT'S ALL, BROTHER.

I-I-I THINK THAT'S ENOUGH FOR NOW, VITTORIO.

IT HAS BEEN A GREAT PLEASURE.

THANK YOU.

HEY, YOU! CUT THAT OUT!

BONNIE!

I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOUR TEMPER, PULASKI!

GET YOUR BIG, BLUE FEET OUT OF HERE

AND...AND TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF ME, TOO!

I'M NOT TAKING ANYTHING OFF, BUT HE IS.

ME? TAKING OFF?

AW, SHUT UP!

DON'T YOU DARE TALK TO VITTORIO THAT WAY!

HE'S A NICE GUY AND A PERFECT GENTLEMAN.

OH, SO IT'S VITTORIO ALREADY, HUH?

SI.VITTORIO--

HELLO. SEE, YOUR NAME'S PULASKI.

NOT MUCH LONGER IT WON'T BE.

OH, IS THAT--

HUH?

VITTORIO GIUSEPPE--

AW, YOU BIG CIVILIAN CREEP!

YOU LOOK TIRED, PULASKI.

ALL THAT TRAMPING AROUND.

YOU BETTER HAVE A NICE REST IN THE BRIG.

BILLY?

SIGNORINA, ARRIVEDERCI.

OH! BILLY!

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

MRS. BRADVILLE?

OH! THANK YOU.

THIS IS ADDRESSED TO ALL OF US.

"JUST TO SAY THANKS FOR EVERYTHING AND GOOD-BYE.

"P.S. TONI, I'LL SEND YOU THE LIRE I BORROWED.

LOVE, BONNIE-- EX-SEA GULL."

WELL, IF I KNOW BONNIE,

SHE HAS BORROWED JUST ENOUGH

TO GET TO THE NEAREST AMERICAN CONSULATE.

THE LAST BUS LEFT AT 2:30.

WHAT TIME IS IT?

UH, 3:00.

OH! LITTLE IDIOT!

BEN, YOU JUST HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.

SHE'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.

[BOTH TALKING AT ONCE]

HOLD IT! GIRLS!

HEY, THERE SHE IS!

OH, YEAH!

HEY, STOP THE BUS!

LIKE...LIKE HOW?

LIKE...ANY WAY YOU DO IT.

PRESS A BUTTON.

GOOD!

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

BLUEBIRD TO COMMANDER HUSBAND.

CONTACT ESTABLISHED. I LOVE YOU.

[KISS]

WHAT IS IT? WHAT'S THE MATTER?

SOMETHING'S HAPPENED TO MY BILLY.

I KNOW IT.

WHAT HAPPENED?

IS HE HURT?

NOT YET.

NOT YET?

YOU MEAN HE'S GOING TO BE? WHEN?

WHEN HE FINDS OUT THAT YOU DIDN'T LOVE HIM ENOUGH TO STICK IT OUT.

NO.

UH-UH. I'VE TRIED ENOUGH.

IF THAT'S WHAT YOU CAME AFTER ME FOR,

TO GET ME TO SEA GULL AGAIN,

YOU'VE ALL WASTED YOUR TIME.

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LET ME GET AWAY WITH THAT, ARE YOU?

EH!

[MAN SPEAKING ITALIAN]

TAKE IT EASY, MAN. JUST RELAX.

IT'S AN EMERGENCY, SEE?

PRESTO! PRESTO!
